1 + 1 = 2 Semesters
The academic year is divided into two semesters or terms. The summer semester usually runs from April 1 to September 30, the winter semester lasts from October 1 to March 31. The semester may begin or end one month earlier at some universities of applied science. About a third of the academic year consists of breaks, time away from the lecture halls. But these months can hardly be called vacation though; you'll need the time to write research papers, work on presentations and finish your homework. Some professors schedule examinations or tests during this time. You may also need the time to acquire work experience through internships.
